Ch61 - Souvenir

Mariane was staring at the front of her closet in a daze, and she was looking at the clothes hanging on the hanger one by one, thinking about what she should wear.‘Is this the dress I'm wearing?’Mariane took a black and white colored short sleeve knee-length dress with a collar and measured it on her body while looking at the full-length mirror. She grimaced when Mariane realizes that it was too short, that when she bent over her butt could be seen.‘Too short,’ she muttered to herself.Mariane took another dress from her closet and measured some clothes. She took a long-sleeved silk blouse and high-waste shorts, but she realized that the weather was too hot, and she didn’t know where they would go and the long-sleeves could be too hot and uncomfortable. Especially if they go outdoors. The next thing she took was a crop top shirt, but she had stretch marks on his stomach and it would have made her feel uncomfortable as well.Mariane sighed in exasperation.“Arghh! Why am I worrying

Ch62 - Man in Black

Mariane received a letter from the office of the civil Registrar, three days after David signed their divorce agreement. After reading the letter, saying that their marriage was now null, Mariane couldn’t help but daze. It feels like there was a hole in her heart, and she couldn’t explain why she was feeling empty inside. It was like she was trying to fill the glass with water, but it couldn’t be full. ‘I should be happy now that I am single again, right?’ Mariane thought as she tilted her head. Mariane sighed. She stood up to prepare for her first day of work. Today, she will start working at David’s company as a new accounting clerk. Mariane feels a little nervous about meeting David again. Mariane remembered the last time they met when the three of them went for a walk in a themed park, where they had a three-day itinerary there.

Ch63 - "Single Mom"

On the third day of their tour, they went to the famous grand fireworks display at the theme park that tourists usually go to because it’s not just ordinary fireworks. But that puts on a show for the audience. David brought a mat for them to sit or lie on. They also bring food so that when they are hungry, they have something to eat. After having lunch, they immediately went to the said park, where the fireworks display was being held. “Let me carry Jacob,” David said to Mariane, but she shook her head in disagreement. “No. It’s okay. I can carry him. You already bring a lot. Besides, I’m used to it. I always carried him whenever we go on our mother-and-son dates.” Mariane smiled to reassure him it was okay. When they arrived at the park, they immediately positioned themselves in the middle of the vast expanse of the empty park. Many people are already seated and have their own mats to use. Other children are playing and running freely in the wide flat area surrounded by Bermuda gr

Ch64 - Ignored by him

"Mariane... Mariane!" Mariane was back from her thoughts when one of her office mates knocked on her desk.She didn’t notice that she was in a daze for a long time. She was thinking of her three days trips together with Jacob and David. When they went to the theme park, David left them without a word, and the man in black.“Uh, I’m sorry. What were you saying?” She asked.Her colleague rolled her eyes irritatingly. “I said get ready. The CEO is on his way. And he’ll be having a weekly office visit in each department.” Her colleague informed her.“He-he’s going to pay a visit in each department?” Mariane asked, who looked stunned.“Are you deaf? I just said that earlier, didn't I? Where is your brain, and you seem out of your mind?” Her colleague shook her head in disappointment. And left her cubicle.Mariane frowned at the behavior of her colleague. ‘She doesn’t need to be rude. I’m just asking, what’s wrong with that?’ Mariane pouted.Mariane cleaned up her desk. It was her first tim

Ch65 - Mariane's complaints

It’s been months since Mariane starts working with David. And just as expected, Mariane and David ignored each other. And Mariane’s life in her work became hard. Her colleagues always order her around, even if it’s not part of her work. Like they ordered her to print copies, order food, and deliver the files from their department to other departments. And it made her wonder why they were doing those things to her. Until one day, she heard her superior talking to one of he colleagues when they were in the restroom.Mariane went inside one of the cubicles of the restroom when her superior entered together with another employee.“By the way, ma’am, I was just wondering… Why should we give orders to Mariane, when we have interns to take care of it? And I also noticed the CEO… these past few months, he’s being short-tempered.” The employee asked her superior while putting lipstick on her lips.The supervisor smirked and leaned on the lavatory, facing her subordinate. “Oh, about that,” she

Ch66 - Connections

“What are the things she asked you to do?” David asked.Mariane’s anger subsides after David explained that it was not his doing. And he believed him. After all, she knew David never lied… except for saying that he loves her.“She didn’t give me the files I need to learn. She ordered me around. Do all the photocopying, buy them their food or drinks, deliver the files to other departments, and even clean up their mess. Sometimes she asked me to fix the files even if it was past my work time.”“Is that the reason why you go home late?” David asked making Mariane nod.“Yes,” she answered with her mind still confused about why the supervisor did that to her.“John, call Miss Morgan,” David ordered.Miss Martina Morgan was Mariane’s superior and the supervisor of the accounting department. She’s been working for five years, and it was the first time, David receives a complaint from their department. David couldn’t believe that Martina would do such a thing. What’s more… it was Mariane whom

Ch67 - Warning

There was a sudden silence in the office after Martina left. And the atmosphere became awkward. Mariane looked around and noticed the beauty of its modern and minimalist design. The ripple fold curtain is open to block the sunlight through the floor-to-ceiling window. There were black couches at the center of the room where he receives his visitors. There were also two chairs opposite each other in front of his desk and built-in bookshelves. There is also a large painting of a woman with her back turned and walking down the dark path to the narrow road, which caught her attention. Mariane narrowed at the image.‘It looks somewhat familiar.’ Mariane wondered where did she see the place in the painting. She had trouble figuring out the image on the wall, so she stood up and approached the picture. She realized it was the place going to their house, and it was her, who was walking on that narrowed road. Mariane gasped.‘When did he get this painting?’ she wondered. Mariane fixated on

Ch68 - The Return of the Traitor

A private plane lands at the airport, carrying a woman returning for revenge. She adjusted his sunhat over her head as the wind nearly blew it away. Men in black suits immediately met her to pick her up.“Welcome back, madam,” the men in black bowed at her, and they greeted her with respect.‘Ahhh... There’s no place like home. It’s good to return to the land of my birth.’ Agatha smiled and took a deep breath as she savored the air.When she remembered the man she once loved and saw him, the girl immediately squealed in anger. His hands clenched and his eyes were glaring with anger.‘But now that I return, your blood, David, will spill on my hands. Because of what you did to me in the past, you and your family… I will kill you all.’Agatha took a deep breath to calm herself. “Take me to the coffee shop and call Martina. Take her there.”“Yes, Madam,” The man in a suit bowed his head.As soon as she arrived at the coffee shop, Agatha instructed the manager to close the shop. So that n

Ch69- Evil Plan

“Tell me everything about what’s happening inside your boss’ company,” Agatha ordered, which made Martina nod.“A few months ago, the CEO hired a new accountant. I wondered because we don’t need to hire a new one since we’re full.” Remembering the image of Mariane in her mind made Martina snort.“And I think she’s close with the CEO. The CEO called me earlier just to scold me.”Agatha frowned. “And why is that?”“Because Mariane complained.-”“Hold on.” Martina stopped talking when Agatha interrupted her.“Mariane? Does her name Mariane Ramos?” Agatha asked.Stunned, Martina nodded slowly. “How’d you know her?” she asked.“So… they’re back together?” Agatha murmured.“I’m sorry… But what were you saying, Madam?” Agatha asked. She couldn’t hear what Agatha was talking about.“Ha!” Agatha scoffed. She shook her head in disbelief.‘What is she doing there? Why is she working with David? She is looking for her own grave, that’s for sure.’ She wondered.Later on, Agatha laughed evilly. “Ha

Ch70- ‘Jacob got kidnapped.’

“Jacob... My son…” Mariane muttered as she walked down the road that the van that took her took.Disheveled hair, tears that dried onto her face, lost slippers, and three hours of walking on the road without knowing where to go. Mariane got devastated after Jacob got caught by the unknown men. Her mind went black and didn’t think of what she should do. Mariane kept on crying and muttering Jacob’s name. She didn’t care what people might be thinking now, as they saw her walking down the road with no slippers. She continued walking until she stopped in front of the building.It was the building David owned. Without thinking, Mariane went inside and hurriedly entered the elevator. In the elevator, Tristan and their other colleagues noticed her. But Mariane was too clouded to see them. All she could think about right now was her son and nothing else.“Mariane?” Tristan approached her. Seeing Mariane, who looks miserable and disheveled, makes him frown.“What happened to you?” he asked wor
